All,
	I have looked at the Orbit 133a ATS v002

IBEX_2011_199_o0133a_v002.txt

and I approve.

	No constraint violations.

	The PL commands in the ATS v002 match the STF v001 files

IBEX_2011_199_o0133a_v001.stf

per Ken's script (Thanks, Ken!).

	PL ascending and descending operations make sense with 
respect to 15 Re ascending, Apogee, and 15 Re descending times from

IBEX_2011_199_o0133a_v001.oef

respectively.

	Moon in -Lo FOV PMT setback commands in the STF match the 
ATS; the .oef Moon-in-Lo FOV times are respectively 5 and 2 hours 
later than the STF times, but substantially the same.

	No ground station contact times. I assume those must be 
loaded independently.

	4 Battery cell balancing Cycles in an independent .ats for 
Orbit132. All are at good times, > 1 hour from anything.

	Inertial maneuver at the end of orbit 132 left us pointing in 
a safe direction for ascending and descending macros during first 
half of orbit:

	No O-mode this orbit.

	-Lo gain test in file IBEX_2011_Orbit133_LoGainTest_v001.txt 
runs just before descending at final perigee in orbit and are clear 
of other operations; commands match -Lo STF per Ken's script.

	(-Hi gain test in file 
IBEX_2011_Orbit132_HighGainTest_v001.txt runs during Orbit 132, 
approval separate)

	No overlaps to orbit 132. I have not checked 
http://ibex.unh.edu/cgi-bin/ats.cgi, however. Transmitter on/off 
commands will still need to be added and may cause overlaps, which 
should not be a problem.

	Command Approval Checklist attached.
